Abstract

One of the important issues that are quite often a challenge in modern distributed systems is the issue of adaptability. The need for adaptability rises from the fact that these systems are very much open, heterogeneous environments encompassing a wide range of hardware/software products from an ever-increasing number of vendors. Therefore, mechanisms are needed that allow these products to live and interact dynamically in a way that satisfies the different performance and functionality requirements of their heterogeneous environments. The Mobile Proxies (MP) project provides one such mechanism for client/server systems that are integrated using the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) technology. The system achieves adaptability by exposing the low-level data traffic, exchanged between clients and servers, to different functionality-manipulating programs, each capable of modifying the data traffic in such a way that adaptability is achieved between client and server environments.
